JOHN PETER ABBATE PAUL GERALD ASHWORTH sr. PATRICKlS sr. ANDREW,S Johnny He is a quiet lad until one begins to talk baseball. Then he becomes loud in his praises of his favorites, the Pittsburgh Pirates. Gifted with a hne sense of humor, John has always been one of the most popular fellows in the class. At present he is undecided about his vocation. Radio and business hold equal attraction for him. For a time the United States Marine Corps will open its ranks to Johnny. Good luck, boy! Success is yours for the asking. Ash The fellow with a winning smile is bound to do well. So they say, so say we about Paul. A Varsity letterman in football, he showed that courage and spirit which are necessary for achievement. Lifting that veil which hides the future, we find that Ash will attend either Gannon College or St. Bonaventure's to prepare himself for advertising. We think that he will find his friends all plugging and praying for him to develop into a super' salesman. E . C . JOSEPH ANTHONYPAUGUSTINE LELAND JONATHAN BAILEY sr PAUL s Wallio Should this young man ever find pharmacy too onerous or exacting he might easily take the place of any t ilented member of the Band he showed ability on the trumpet and the drums In swimming and water polo he did his share to keep Prep above water Joe plans to study at the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy All we ask is that Wallio make certain that the concoctions he mixes are good HOLY nosARY Bales This boy is a gentleman More than that he is quiet studious and loyal During his four years with us he has Light and Heet afoot Bales was one of our best track stars And he approached this sport with the same determina tion and perseverance with which he studied Mechanical engineering is his choice of a profession To go along with this selection he prefers Carnegie Tech as the school comedian. Wit and humor are native ,to him. As a always ranked among the top ten students of the class.
